That is cool how they blink in and out like animation. I'm trying to remember other and older performances that do similar things, but they escapes me at the moment.

However, that ain't Tron. >_< In addition, "I know music. Music has notes. This is noise...while my brain dribble out of my ears. ... It's not music, it's just meaningless sounds."

Lucifer should appreciate this. Possible he's already seen it (apparently it happened about a month ago, but I just heard about it), but in case not:

Meanwhile, in Belgium.... Which begs the question, what the hell is that?

Halftime commercial UEFA Champions League finals
Nike just has it down on creating en vogue TV spots. Made me think of that 90's Nike football commercial starring Eric Cantona and the Devil: Maybe they're friendly!?

:) Nice! That guy is one of my heroes. Big influence on me. For a few years I lived about a mile from his house, but I never got to meet him. :/

One of my heroes as well :) , I learned about him when I made my exams and got the Jimmy Corrigan book as a present (for some work I did for our jazzband) - I don't know why I've never heard of him earlier. I think he's the first really innovative comic artist since Hergé and he said elsewhere that Hergé was one of his idols, haha.

(Although his work reminds me a bit more of McCay's Little Nemo somehow, because of the format and structure. The style and storytelling has something genuinely American, something that I don't know from French comics. They have their own merits of course.)

I strongly dislike Jimmy Kimmel, and while I haven't seen any of it in totality yet I've disliked what I've seen of the new Tron stuff. Nonetheless, Paul Reubens on Tron. (Tron content in Part 2.)

Oh, by the way, I didn't even realise myself (I originally saw it on the actual boob tube), but there's a Part 3 to that. In case my above comment might've led to believe the Tron content was only in Part 2.

Wait, are you showing me this because it rips of my Star Wars vs Saul Bass video? I seem to have single-handedly ruined Mr. Bass' legacy. Everytime someone does a Saul Bass mash-up, it rips of mine and leaves his other wonderful work untouched.

:/ I have deep regrets.
